Caribbean Grill Festival Returns to Puerto Morelos: 30+ Food Stands, Live Music & International Chefs

Get ready, food lovers! The Caribbean Grill Festival is returning to Puerto Morelos this October.

 

The beautiful Ventana al Mar esplanade will once again host this amazing event. It’s a celebration of delicious grilled food and community spirit.

 

A Growing Local Tradition

 

Mark your calendars for October 25 and 26, 2025. This will be the fourth time our town welcomes the festival. Since it started in 2023, more and more people have come to enjoy it every year.

 

Attendance has grown by over 50% each time. This shows how much everyone loves this tasty tradition. Both locals and visitors from around the world come to experience it.

 

What to Expect This Year

 

This year promises even more fun and flavor. Over 30 stands will offer a huge variety of grilled meats, chicken, seafood, and vegetables. You can also find drinks, desserts, and special tastings.

 

Chef Luis David Sánchez Orea, the festival director, is very excited. He shared that Jacob Chocolatería from Bacalar will join with smoked chocolate.

 

Chefs from Querétaro, other Caribbean areas, and Spain will also be there.

 

New Locations and Sounds

 

For the first time, parts of the festival will also be in the Parque Fundadores. This expands the celebration beyond just the Ventana al Mar.

 

Get ready for some great music too.

 

Four local bands will be chosen to perform. This helps showcase our local talent and gets everyone involved. It’s a wonderful way to celebrate our community.

 

More Than Just Food

 

The festival expects over 1500 visitors each day. They plan to grill more than 800 kilograms of protein.

 

You can even watch master classes to learn new grilling tricks.

 

One famous chef joining us is Andrés Salas from Spain. He won an award for the "Best taco in Spain."

 

This event is supported by our City Council and a major TV network.

 

Giving Back to Our Community

 

The Caribbean Grill Festival is about more than just good food. It also helps our community.

 

A part of the money raised goes to DIF Quintana Roo. This helps strengthen programs for families in our state.

 

This is a fantastic event for everyone in Puerto Morelos.

 

Come enjoy the flavors, the music, and the great company. It’s a perfect way to celebrate our town and its vibrant culture.
